We had a chance to catch up with Uptown Manhattan-based graphic designer and artist, Tony Peralta, our amigo behind The Peralta Project. Between greeting fans and showcasing his art at the New York City Pool Art Fair that took place at the Flatiron Hotel recently, Mr. Peralta, was able to give us a few minutes to talk about the city, his Complejo series and a few things that he's currently working on. Ready. Set. Go!
